| Comments: |
Conditions are really good right now, cool temperatures, no bugs, dry trails, etc. A bit windy early morning at the summits.
First time doing this hike. Did the loop counterclockwise. Felt like most of the elevation was out of the way before reaching the spur trail to Jennings Peak. The traverse between Jennings Peak and Sandwich Dome is a pleasant stretch of trail, nice woods, moderate grades and decent footing. Descending Drakes Brook Trail is a good way to go down; it is a bit longer but less rocky and with better footing.
Sandwich Dome may not be a 4000 footer, but it might as well be.
